As a result, the ceremony was dramatically paused while she went to the back to remove the eyelashes, as the pastor requested.

Netizens React
Netizens quickly shared their thoughts on the situation, with many questioning why the pastor demanded she remove the eyelashes, especially if they were extensions.
Others speculated whether the church was Anglican, as such practices are often associated with it, while another user shared a similar experience of an SDA pastor asking her sister to remove acrylic nails during her wedding.
